Title: Can a 25-A day be used on YouTube?
Post by: BigBubba on December 26, 2014, 09:17

Hi, I found one of my vectors which was only downloaded via SS in a you tube video. Is that allowed by the terms?

Thank you.

Redistribution is never allowed as far as I know.

So...assuming you are right, what should I do next?

Sure, it's fine.   It isn't redistribution, it's using it in a video.  Just like many stock photos are used in a video.  Redistribution would be redistributing the vector file.

Even as a 25-A day and not an EL?

Thanks for the answer.

Sure.  That's the point of basic RF - promotional use.

Oops! I read the post wrong. I thought that the OP meant it was one of those "videos" that just had a link to a download. My apologies.
